How do you deal with class clowns (college)

[sharpshooter]

The ones where every 2 seconds they scream some funny answer out, or make a joke about the current topic and everyone laughs. Sorta gets on my nerves. These are usually guys that can only pull it off if they're with their clown friend. I'm a funny guy in my own right and I do this too once in a while, i can do it alone even if i don't know the person next to me..but god damn not every 30 seconds! It's like two on one. I've gotta significantly cut down on the amount of jokes I say outloud now because there's two of them and one of me. The worst example was today where I came into class late...found two of these weiner clowns sitting next to the girl I'm targetting, and she's cracking up and loving it..and you know they're not gonna follow through with ****. Man, makes me feel like I gotta be a clown to make her laugh etc. Just the second week of college too. Most of the time you can take stuff like this, but when it comes from two wimpy weiners ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh it just gets to you!

uh, makes you wanna crack someone's skull open

This should be moved to another area. This has no bearing about women.

It DOES in a way. For instance

I'm out numbered 2 to 1 and as I mentioned, I like being funny out loud. Even if my stuff is 10 times funnier, it would never have the weight that two people can have. Especially if the clowns are good friends.

Usually i'm the one making chicks laugh with that stuff and I do it on my own, but these guys make it their life. That's all they do every minute, and quite frankly I can't stand it. They're like these two ****ing jesters.

I'm just sorta worried that If i'm not as funny as them i'm gonna come off as boring or not as "fun" to chicks in that class, even though my body language and attitude is far from boring.

humour won't get u laid. talking to girls about meaningful stuff (to them) will. Maybe shout out one or two things, then start talking to the girl 1on1. By the end of the year the class is usually tired of the guy who shouts sh!t out non-stop anyways.

[Jay-X]

that's true, by the end of the year no class clown is going to be taken seriously, so don't worry... i mean, if they are not alphas

 

[Interpol]

Go to a real college maybe? Seriously, why isn't your professor *****-slapping these people?

No, it doesn't. Read the title of your own thread for verification.

Moved to AE.

That's really not that bad. Just think if you had a guy who made all these lame ass jokes that no one laughs at, which leads to that awful awkard silence, and/or always has to make commentary about something every 30 seconds. It seems like I have at least 1 person like that in all my college classes (and I go to a very small community college too,). You just have to learn to deal with it.

Being class clown is bad! They are attention seekers and as many have said earlier, they are not taken seriously after a while. I was one off those guys who said some pretty funny ****, when people were late, most didn't care, when I was late (almost every morning) all the heads in the class turned to hear the more insane excuse after the other. Alltough people lauged their asses off for the stuff I said, it was also the only way to get attention from my fellow classmates. Save the jokes for one on one encounters, because shouting out stuff in class won't make you laid or respected.

School is primarily is a social venue, if you truly want an 'academic experience' and want to do some hardcore studying I suggest taking correspondance courses.
The class clowns are the guys you will remember forever, everyone else will fade away.

uhm, perhaps in High School it is mainly a social avenue; not in college.
